  Downwind rig for tripping
  Posted by: TommyC1 on Sep-06-11 12:38 PM (EST)
 

An upwind rig has too much wieght and complexity.
Canoes and kayaks can almost always paddle into the wind faster than they can sail.
A lightweight downwind rig that goes up and down quick and easy could be useful on the lakes and larger rivers.
